Interplay between the Limitation Act and the UP GST Act concerns exclusion of limitation where a special statutory power to condone delay exists and where a bona fide rectification application is prosecuted with due diligence. The court reasons that a specific condonation power in the special Act operates to displace the general Section 5 principle, and that filing a timely application for rectification of an order puts the limitation to file an appeal in abeyance during its pendency; because the rectification application was filed within time and pursued in good faith, the pendency period is excluded and the subsequent appeal was held within limitation.
